Keyes - Directly
Direct downloads of the Keyes winning run of our Going Nowhere Fast contest are now available; visit the GNF Status page for your choices. Quick Update on BitTorrent stats for the contest vids in general - 12,000 total downloads have been handled by the network, accounting for 1.2 terabytes over the past couple of weeks. (Our normal bandwidth needs haven't decreased because of this contest - this number is in ADDITION to what we normally handle.) Direct downloads account for another very large chunk of bandwidth - I don't have exact numbers, because I don't have access to all the server logs, but I'm guessing it's on the same order as the BT downloads. For this particular series of downloads, BitTorrent made a HUGE bandwidth requirement tolerable for our network of self-supported servers. (Louis Wu 11:17:40 UTC)
